Messages Unsaid
▬❈▬
When I can't remember the significant,
they're messages unsaid.
The key to my heart
gets lost somewhere and
the residue atop it dries up
after awhile of
being in cold air.
Creativity becomes a fossil
pushed downward where
I can't find it; that's how strong
the chill from shortened focus
hits and
steers me away from
working towards
getting a grave point across.
Love Bites
▬❈▬
Why was I the victim
of such horseplay?
It didn't scar me too deeply
but still blended me up
into the river that's
easy to drown in anymore.
So much for sightings of
the same mirage
over and over again,
bound to teach me lessons, but
paralyzing me at the same time
and shocking me at
every curious feeling.
Awakening Bullet

Your voice is so sharp
that it slashed the puffed velvet
of my subconsciousness
and practically let
a stream of panicked tears
bleed out.
Fortunately, the only thing
that left me
besides the tensed mess
was the healing factor.
Blind And Deaf To Loneliness
▬❈▬
I won't even scream
but the pain in the center
is unbearable,
though somehow I've weathered
my reaction as bad
as I was shriveling in a
toxic puddle of lonesomeness
in which no one could understand my cries
for help
but me, as I've uttered them with
my deepened thoughts embroidered
but just floating and tattering
in the acid.
